Throughout the year each gallery will show 8-10 independent events, with the occasional one crossing over both galleries.

==Photography==
At its outset Richard Goodall Gallery brought contemporary photography to Manchester as the first large scale accessible gallery in the UK and the only Photography gallery outside of London. Starting with 33 Still Lives by [[Anton Corbijn]]<ref> http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anton_Corbijn </ref> it has shown major exclusive photography exhibitions from Mark Seliger - Platinums <ref>Manchester Evening News Mark Seliger [http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/entertainment/arts/s/163/163578_a_date_with_mark_seliger.html]</ref> and Graham Nash<ref>The Guardian [http://arts.guardian.co.uk/pictures/0,,1192752,00.html]</ref>

== The Rock Poster Explosion ==
With the success of The New shows Richard Goodall Gallery dedicated an entire floor of the gallery to the new genre of Rock Poster Art. This covered the new wave of the American based artists that were creating the next generation of music posters in the tradition of the sixties poster artists of San Francisco's Family Dog and Bill Graham Presents and Detroit. The likes of Wes Wilson, Moscoso, Mouse & Kelley, Garry Grimshaw and Dennis Loren.

This new art form started again with Frank Kozik and Coop in the late 90's and continues today with a whole new generation of artists. The Richard Goodall Gallery and now the new Richard Goodall Gallery: Underground is the only gallery in the UK exhibiting this work.

The new work was showcased in a number of exhibitions most notable in the Post Neo Explosionism show with [[Emek]], [[Justin Hampton]] and [[Jermaine Rogers]] which featured an in-store appearance by Queens of The Stone Age, the subject of much of the work<ref>Guardian [http://arts.guardian.co.uk/critic/feature/0,,1321804,00.html]</ref> <ref>BBC [http://www.bbc.co.uk/manchester/going_out/culture/2003/04/02/gigposter.shtml]</ref>
